Photo of Helen Mirren by Catherine Ashmore. Synopsis

After the death of his father, Count Bertram of Rossillion is called to Paris to serve the King of France. The King is deathly ill, and the physician who might have cured him has died, though not before leaving his medical secrets to his daughter, Helena. Bertram’s mother, the Countess, regards Helena as a daughter, and discovers that her recent melancholy has been caused by her unrequited love for Bertram. Hearing of the King's illness, Helena decides to follow Bertram to Paris, where she will attempt to cure the King. The King learns of a war in Italy, and he gives permission to the young nobles of the court to join either side to gain experience.

When Helena arrives in the court, she offers to cure the King; if she fails, she will forfeit her life, but if she succeeds, the King must give her the husband of her choice. When she succeeds, she asks to be married to Bertram. Not wanting to marry a girl of low birth, Bertram protests, but the King commands Bertram to obey. After he reluctantly agrees, his soldier friend Parolles urges him to run away to the war. Bertram sends Helena back to Rossillion, promising to follow after.

In Rossillion, Helena receives a letter from Bertram asserting that they will never truly be married until she wears his ring and carries his child, two things which he will make sure never happen, for he has joined the Florentine army and vowed not to return to France while Helena lives. Determined not to lose Bertram, Helena follows him to Italy disguised as a religious pilgrim. While lodging at a hostel kept by a widow and her beautiful daughter Diana, Helena learns that Bertram has been courting Diana. Helena offers Diana three thousand crowns to assist her plot against Bertram: Diana will only let Bertram come to her room if he first gives her the ring he wears. In the room, however, Helena will be the one waiting for the midnight liaison.

Several French officers in the Florentine army, determined to prove to Bertram that Parolles is a coward, capture and threaten Parolles, pretending to be the enemy. Bertram returns to camp, having spent the night with the woman he thought was Diana. The officers then bring in the blindfolded Parolles, who tells all he knows and goes on to insult his comrades. When the blindfold is removed, Parolles is embarrassed but undaunted.

Helena spreads a rumor that she has died on her pilgrimage. Saddened, the King visits the Countess at Rossillion, and agrees to forgive Bertram if he will marry the daughter of another lord. Suddenly, the King recognizes the ring on Bertram’s finger as the one the King gave to Helena. Bertram makes up a story that it was thrown to him by a lady in Florence; just then, Diana appears and, claiming that Bertram seduced her, demands that he marry her. Bertram denounces her as a prostitute, but Diana produces the ring he gave her. When she refuses to tell the King how she came to possess the ring, he orders her imprisoned. Diana sends for her “bail”: Helena, alive and pregnant with Bertram's child. Thus Helena has fulfilled Bertram's two conditions to become his real wife, and Bertram promises to love her faithfully.

Costume rendering for All’s Well That Ends Well by Robert Perdziola. About the Playwright

William Shakespeare

No man’s life has been the subject of more speculation than William Shakespeare’s. While Shakespearean scholars have dedicated their lives to the search for evidence, the truth is that no one really knows what the truth is. Scholars agree that a William Shakespeare was baptized at Stratford- upon-Avon on April 26, 1564. Tradition holds that he was born three days earlier, on April 23—the same date on which, 52 years later, he was recorded to have died. On November 27, 1582, a marriage license was granted to 18-year-old William and 26-year-old Anne Hathaway. A daughter, Susanna, was born to the couple six months later. We know that twins, Hamnet and Judith, were born soon after and were baptized. What we do not know is how the young Shakespeare came to travel to London and how he first came to the stage. Whatever the truth may be, it is clear that in the years between 1582 and 1592 someone calling himself William Shakespeare became involved in the London theatre scene and was a principal actor with one of several repertory companies.

By 1592 Shakespeare had become prominent enough as a playwright to engender professional jealousy. A rival playwright, Robert Greene, wrote snidely of an “upstart crow, beautified with our feathers, that with his tiger’s heart wrapped in a player’s hide supposes he is as well able to bombast out a blank verse as the best of you, and being an absolute Johannes-factotum is in his own conceit the only Shakescene in a country.” In the years between 1591 and 1593, the theatres of London were temporarily shut down due to an outbreak of plague; Shakespeare turned his considerable talents to sonnet writing and acquired a patron, the young Lord Southampton, to whom two of his poems, Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece, are dedicated.

In 1594 Shakespeare was listed as a stockholder in the Lord Chamberlain’s Men; he was a member of this company for the rest of his career, which lasted until approximately 1611. When James I came to the throne in 1603, he issued a royal license to Shakespeare and his fellow players, inviting them to call themselves The King’s Men. The King’s Men leased the Blackfriar’s Theatre in London in 1608. This theatre, which had artificial lighting and was probably heated, served as their winter playhouse. The famous Globe Theatre was their summer performance space.

In the years since Shakespeare’s death, he had fallen to the depths of obscurity only to be resurrected as the greatest writer of English literature and drama. In the 1800s, his plays were so popular that many refused to believe that an actor from Stratford had written them. To this day some believe that Sir Francis Bacon was the real author of the plays; others argue that Edward DeVere, the Earl of Oxford, was the man. Still others contend that Sir Walter Raleigh or Christopher Marlowe penned the lines attributed to Shakespeare. Whether the plays were written by Shakespeare the man or Shakespeare the myth, it is clear that no other playwright has made such a significant and lasting contribution to the English language.

Affiliated Artists

For several years, the Shakespeare Theatre Company has referred to a number of its recurring actors as Company Members. These are artists to whom the theatre has made a long-term commitment because of the depth and range of their talent, and who have come to consider STC as an artistic home.

In addition to actors, there are also directors and designers to whom STC is similarly committed. These artists are also crucial to the production process, and the theatre wants to recognize their dedication to the work of STC. STC has widened its notion of “company” by crediting a select group of actors, directors and designers as Affiliated Artists.

This Affiliated Artists program renews STC’s commitment to those actors who have been the cornerstone of the theatre’s work for years, while also formally acknowledging the theatre’s relationship with other artists whose work has contributed immeasurably to the excellence of STC’s productions. The theatre is incredibly grateful to these Affiliated Artists and looks forward to continuing to produce the finest classical theatre in America with them.

For more than 24 years, the Shakespeare Theatre Company has pushed the boundaries of classical theatre. Season after season we have built a reputation as the nation’s premier classical theatre by presenting challenging productions that are insightfully directed, superbly acted and played with the most beautiful sets, costumes, lighting and music imaginable.

What motivates us is an unfailing commitment to artistic excellence — and our dedication to you, our audience. We could not do this work without you, and frankly, we wouldn’t want to.

As a non-profit theatre, STC relies on the support of people just like you — people who are passionately committed to classical theatre and want to ensure its future. Each year, ticket sales cover just 60 percent of the real cost of producing a full season of the theatre you love at STC.

Please help us cover the gap by becoming a Shakespeare Star, joining the Artistic Circle or including the theatre in your estate plans via the Society of 1616.

The ACA partners with The George Washington University, which is located in the midst of Washington, D.C.’s vibrant cultural life. This conservatory-style program is designed for professional actors who want to immerse themselves in rigorous training with an extraordinary professional faculty.
